Abstract

Similar to the current coronavirus pandemic, the polio pandemic during the early 20th century impacted the entire world, leaving many children permanently disabled. The Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children was created to address this need. In this article, Dewain Collins tells his story of being treated for polio by Dr. William Beall Carrell at Scottish Rite in the 1930s.
